I played 3 matches and I don't know what it is but it seems exactly the same. In all three games I was rushed quickly and that is all they really did. I cleared out the first wave, then the second, then counter pushed and won. I will admit that I lost a 4th match really fast. A ZvZ. That is only because I tried to go for an economy build and got fast rushed by zerglings. Every game consisted of getting rushed quickly. Nothing else seems to be very different though I did see an orbital command up and toss warped in some cannons for D.

Well the preview was posted a few days ago. It should be about a day or so when it gets released. That would be my guess on it. I'm looking so forward to it. Already loving 6.1.1.

Do these changes include having the AI do different openings?  I would like to see it sometimes go for a fast expand or just do a "standard" play. The constant 3 gate, 3 rax, fast pool openers get a little stale over time. Or maybe some how make it so the AI can cheese you?! That would be epic to be playing against an AI and see that he has a pylon and gateway warped outside my base. Regardless looking very forward to 7.0. You are great turd!

Ya. I believe more early game methods would be nice. You said you have 3 different early game strats for each but I'm not really seeing it. Toss 3 gates, Terran 3 rax, Zerg fast pool. I have seen different mid and late game strats though. Now throw in the ability for them to turtle up and tech or do what is considered "standard play" for the race and that would be amazing.

Thank you very much for that info.

I'm using a launcher where you have to hit the plus sign to raise the game speed. Does anyone know how many times I have to hit it to get up to what the MM speed is? I want to play at the speed I'll be playing at when the game comes out.

That chart looks amazing. If that can be accomplished then that will be absolutely amazing! Great work!

I know you said don't ask for an ETA. And I'm not. I'm just curious if we can get an idea of what you plan to get done for 7.0. What are the big goals for the new version? I don't care about the time it takes you to make it. Just curious on what to look forward to.
You can expect improvements !
I hope that was a joke. He isn't going to release 7.0 and have it be EXACTLY the same. He is above that. So I was curious one what the ideas were. Of course he did say he was in the planning stage still. So that means in a couple weeks or so we could have one beastly AI on us.

Found out my problem. Got it all updated to the newest patch. Love this GUI. I have been practicing my toss builds and I can finally play on the fastest setting. Absolutely loving it. And you gotta love picking your own color :) On a side note does anyone know how many times you have to press + at the beginning of the game to get to what the "new" competitive speed is? I'm guessing just maxing it out which I believe is twice. I just spam it like 6 times. But maybe it is only one press. I don't know. Anyone know? BTW liking the new layout idea you just posted. Good work.

How can I download a higher version for this game? When I go to the original launcher in the directory it doesn't install an update. Any ideas?
#12
How are you guys changing the game speed? Is there a file for that I need to download? I would like to play on the faster setting like back in BW. Would make it better imo.

6.1 is great! Thanks!

ET of A till 7.0?
Where are you getting 6.1? All I see is 6.0 still.
#14
6.1 sounds great. Exactly what it needs. Looking forward to it. Already greatly impressed with 6.0. Heck I even finally lost a match. I think mainly because I have been getting lazy but hey the AI normally didn't beat me when I was lazy so very impressed. Keep up the great work!

suggestion: try not walling against a comp?  :D

I was just doing what I normally do in a real game. Don't really find it purposeful to deviate from it when playing against the computer. I play the AI with the goal of practicing for 1v1.
You are playing against this AI for the wrong reason if you are practicing for 1v1 matches. It isn't going to get you much for that. If anything it will just make you develop bad habits. Or turn in to a complainer on how easy the AI is. This AI is really good for practicing your macro though. Try to make sure you are always low on minerals and gas. That is what this AI is great for. Practice the macro!
